Select a Heart Rate program.
To select a Heart Rate program, press the Heart
Rate button repeatedly.
When a Heart Rate program is selected, the dis-
play will show the name of the program and the
maximum target heart rate setting of the program.
In addition, a graph of the target heart rate set
-
tings of the program will appear in the center of
the display.
Heart Rate program 1 is divided into one-minute
segments. The same target heart rate setting is
programmed for all segments (except for the first
two segments).
Heart Rate programs 2, 3, and 4
are divided into 30 one-minute segments. One tar-
get heart rate setting is programmed for each seg-
ment. Note: The same target heart rate setting
may be programmed for two or more consecutive
s
egments.
Adjust the maximum target heart rate setting if
desired.
T
o adjust the maximum target heart rate setting,
press the increase and decrease buttons beside
the Heart Rate button. To adjust the target heart
rate setting quickly, hold down one of the buttons.
Press the Start button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the walking
belt will begin to move. Hold the handrails and
begin walking.
Select a display mode and monitor your
progress with the display.
When a Heart Rate program is selected, the con-
sole offers two display modes. Press the Display
button to select the desired display mode.
Regardless of which display mode you select, a
graph of the target heart rate settings of the pro-
gram will appear in the display. A white line repre-
senting your heartbeat will also appear; each time a
heartbeat is detected, an additional peak will ap-
pear in the line. A small arrow below the graph will
indicate your progress.
During each one-minute segment of the program,
the console will compare your heart rate to the
current target heart rate setting. If your heart rate
is too far below or above the target heart rate set
-
ting, the speed of the walking belt or the incline of
the treadmill will automatically change to bring
your heart rate closer to the target heart rate set
-
ting. Each time the speed or incline changes, the
speed setting and the incline setting will appear at
the top of the display for a moment (or flash in the
display, depending on which display mode is se-
lected) to alert you.
When each segment ends, a series of tones will
sound.
